"Lucy, what do you mean by that? Are you implying that me being here bothers you?”Charlotte wore a look of incredulity, but inside, she was delighted.She had been struggling to make Lucy act out. Now, she had the perfect opportunity to make Lucy accuse her for no apparent reason because of an outsider. This time, she was confident she could turn the tables on Lucy. ‘Let’s see how Lucy is going to handle this now!’ she thought.“If you still don’t get it, let me put it bluntly. What I’m trying to say is…”Lucy did not care anymore and was ready to confront Charlotte directly until Matthew interrupted her calmly.“What my wife means is, Princess Charlotte, aren’t you supposed to be grounded? Has Prince Theodore ordered the lifting of your confinement? Because we weren’t informed about it.”Charlotte, who was still acting a moment ago, was now frozen in place.Lucy initially intended to confront Charlotte directly and defend Chelsea, but after listening to Matthew’s words, she

"I’m not so sure about that. What if she runs off and complains to your biological parents, saying we bullied her? What do we do then?” Chelsea spoke up.Lucy shook her head and said, “I don’t think so. She’s already in the wrong for sneaking out without permission, so she doesn’t even have the right to complain in the first place. She won’t be able to win the argument.”“Alright, alright. Let’s not think about it anymore. Now that the pest is gone, let’s enjoy our meal.”Lucy’s reasoning made sense, so Chelsea stopped dwelling on it. The group happily resumed their lunch.Charlotte may have left the hall, but she did not leave immediately. She glared hatefully at the dining hall from outside while her maid approached her.“Your Highness…”Charlotte turned to her and smiled slyly as she watched the four people inside chatting away happily.“Have you done the thing I asked you to take care of?”The maid nodded, and Charlotte smirked, gazing coldly into the hall as she thought, ‘

Before Lucy could process what was happening, Charlotte rushed into the dining hall with Lola.“I see. I was wondering why you were so eager to kick me out. It turns out that it’s because you’re afraid that I’ll catch you damaging the crown Mom and Dad gave you!”Charlotte wasted no time in putting the blame on Lucy. Without giving anyone a chance to respond, she instructed Lola, “Hurry and fetch the King and Queen. Tell them what happened.”“Yes, Your Highness!” Lola, her maid, nodded and hastily dashed out.Lucy was speechless. She finally understood what exactly Charlotte was up to.“When did you see me damaging the crown? Shouldn’t you be grounded right now? Why haven’t you left yet? Oh, I see. You were waiting outside specifically for this.”Lucy glared at her coldly. If this was how she wanted to play the game, Lucy saw no need to be polite to her anymore.Ignoring Lucy’s sarcasm, Charlotte said triumphantly, “I saw it with my own two eyes. Do you even know what the crown
Young Bride in a Lightning Marriage: Never Tired of Mr. Leon’s Love Chapter 363
There were so many crowns in the palace, and Lucy alone had two. Her parents would not reprimand her over a single crown, right?As they confronted each other, Lola quickly summoned Arthur and Juliana.Following Charlotte’s instructions, Lola told them, “Your Majesties, Princess Charlotte and Princess Velda are arguing because Princess Charlotte saw Princess Velda damaging the coronation crown. "Princess Charlotte advised Princess Velda not to because of the crown’s importance, but Princess Velda argued that it was just a crown and that it did not matter whether it was damaged or not. "Her Highness told Princess Charlotte not to meddle in her business, so they started arguing.”What?! Arthur was furious, so when they arrived, the first thing he did upon seeing Lucy was shout at her, “Velda, what are you doing?”Lucy was taken aback by his shouting.Charlotte smirked and immediately put on a tearful face, crying to Arthur and Juliana, “Dad, Mom, I tried to tell her. I… I couldn

Lola refused to admit it, and Charlotte glanced at Lucy smugly. “See, Lola didn’t tell her to do it at all. I have no idea why you wanted to damage the crown. Perhaps you were just reckless because you failed to realize the value of the crown.”Value? What value? Lucy was bewildered, but Arthur and Juliana were looking at her seriously.Charlotte’s words were convincing enough that they were starting to believe her.“Dad, Mom, don’t be too harsh on my sister. I believe that she was just being playful. Perhaps she was careless because she didn’t know the significance of the crown as the token of her fief.”Her seemingly kind words only added fuel to the fire.Arthur's and Juliana's faces turned cold as they looked at Lucy.“Velda, do you have anything else to say? Do you realize that this crown represents your fief?”Instead of blaming Lucy directly, Juliana explained the importance of the crown, “Without this crown, you won't be able to govern your fief. It’s a symbol of your st

"See? Not only has the sapphire fallen, but there are also several missing diamonds and bent parts.”While Lucy pointed out the flaws, Matthew and the others quickly understood what she was getting at. However, Arthur and Juliana were still puzzled.“We see these things, but what’s the problem? What are you trying to say? Don’t waste everyone’s time!”Charlotte looked at Lucy with annoyance, thinking that Lucy was just beating about the bush to stall her demise.“Why are you in a rush? My point is that if I had damaged the crown here, there should be traces of the missing diamonds in the box or on the floor. But there aren’t any."You guys can get people to search every corner of the dining hall to see if there are any traces of the missing diamonds.”Lucy simply smiled at Charlotte.She had noticed earlier that when she took the crown out of the box, only the sapphire had fallen. There were no diamonds in the box either.Charlotte’s mind was buzzing. Damn it, how could she hav

"Alright, I’ll contact the forensic experts…”Before Arthur finished his sentence, Charlotte hurriedly stopped him and pleaded, “No, Dad. You can’t bring in the forensic experts!”“Why not? There shouldn’t be any reason not to. If you didn’t touch the crown, your fingerprints won't be found. Why are you so nervous?”Lucy spoke icily, and everyone looked at Charlotte with cold eyes too.Charlotte could not come up with an excuse for some time, so she stammered, “I-It’ll turn into a scandal. We’re the royal family. We can’t air our dirty laundry in public…”“Scandal? What scandal? We’re just trying to uncover the truth. Why is it suddenly a scandal?” Matthew chuckled.Arthur and Juliana stared at Charlotte sternly. If they still had not figured out that Charlotte was framing Lucy at this point, they would simply be feigning ignorance.“Charlotte, how could you become like this? You used such tactics to frame your sister! Why did you do this? You’ve greatly disappointed me,” Julian

The maids quickly took Charlotte away.Reluctant to leave, Charlotte continued to cry out, “No, Dad, Mom, you can’t do this to me! I’m sorry. I’ll change. You can’t… You can’t take away my fief.”The maids were still somewhat hesitant until Juliana said, “Take her away!”Although it pained her greatly, she could not afford to be lenient anymore. The maids dared not delay any longer, so they quickly took Charlotte away.Seeing as her cries and repentances were in vain, she eventually turned them into curses. “You’re all liars! You don’t love me. You only love Lucy. I hate her, I hate her!”Arthur and Juliana tried their best to ignore what she said.After Charlotte was taken back to her own room and was held in confinement, it was Lola’s turn to be berated.“I sent you to take care of the princess, and this is how you take care of her? Instead of advising her when she’s doing something wrong, you act as an accomplice!”Juliana stared at Lola with a lethal gaze. When it came to t

As Gabriella examined the luxurious clothes, bags, shoes, and pants, she could not help but feel that Lucy was completely unappreciative of such treasures. She failed to utilize them to enhance her appearance! They spent quite a while going through the various garments and accessories, yet there were still items they had not finished checking out.Lucy gave an awkward smile, acknowledging her own laziness. After a long search, Gabriella finally found a piece that caught her eye. As she checked the tag, she was surprised to find that the dress was designed by a renowned French designer. It featured a V-neck, with simple yet elegant sleeves that revealed a hint of Lucy's arms, while the skirt was a refined and tailored fit.Gabriella held up the dress against Lucy, murmuring to herself, “Hmm, this one’s nice! You should try it on!” Even though she spoke to Lucy in a tone reminiscent of an older sister, she still maintained her authority as a mother-in-law. It made her words both

Since the previous incident, Lucy had become increasingly attentive to her children. She watched over them at nearly every moment. She feared that Charlotte might seize any chance to harm the children, so she remained vigilant and meticulous, avoiding any lapses. In her eyes, Matthew Leon and the children represented her entire world, and she could not afford even the slightest mishap.One day, Gabriella Sharpe visited their home.

Matthew noticed Lucy’s absent-mindedness and asked gently, "Lulu, what’s on your mind?"“Oh, nothing… I just think what happened to Charlotte is so sudden,” Lucy replied.“Don’t worry about it. It has nothing to do with us. She was always trying to harm you. Her fate is something she brought upon herself.” Matthew patted her head comfortingly.However, Lucy found it suspicious. Although the news reported Charlotte’s assassination and that the monastery had burned down to ashes, it did not mention her body. That kind of crucial detail would not have been overlooked by the media.Matthew had also considered this possibility, but he had kept it to himself to avoid alarming Lucy. Charlotte had been sent to the monastery because of him and Lucy, and she had to harbor a deep hatred for them. If she managed to orchestrate her own escape, what if she was now seeking help from Spades to target Lucy? That would be dangerous.“Lulu, don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to you or the ch

With nothing left to hold onto, Charlotte walked down the empty streets, her heart heavy with despair. She wore a black veil that covered her completely, revealing only her eyes. She even had on dark sunglasses. She dared not walk in the open or be seen, nor did she dare expose Juliana’s crimes to the world.She used to be a princess. Everything she had done, every privilege and indulgence, was backed by Arthur and Juliana’s love and permission. Now that her supporters had betrayed her, what right did she have to be reckless or demand anything? Surviving itself was a luxury. How could she even think of acting willfully?As she wandered in anguish, Charlotte found herself by the river. She remembered coming here with Arthur and Juliana when she was a child, laughing and walking along the bank. Now, each memory felt painfully ironic, and every kiss from Juliana seemed sickening. How could her world be so false? How could even the people she trusted most turn against her?Charlotte cou

Charlotte continued to hide within the castle, unwilling to leave and equally unwilling to let anyone know she was alive—unless they promised never to send her back to the monastery. However, she doubted that would happen, so she kept to the shadows. After all, the castle had plenty of food. It was far better than anything at the monastery.One night, Charlotte quietly slipped into Arthur and Juliana's bedroom. To her surprise, Arthur was not there, and only Juliana was present. 'Dad must be too upset to sleep,' Charlotte thought. She knew him well—whenever he was troubled, he would retreat to the study rather than go to bed.As she watched her beloved mother, a tiny bit of her resolve wavered. Juliana looked utterly exhausted, as if she had lost a lot of weight in just a few days. Charlotte had a sudden urge to go in and comfort her, but she knew that was impossible. Charlotte realized that seeing someone through a wall of separation was the most painful thing of all.Just as

The next morning, news of the assassination attempt on Charlotte was sensationalized across all media outlets. The internet was flooded with headlines about her close brush with death, sparking worldwide shock. No one could believe that Charlotte, notorious for her arrogance and harsh treatment of offenders, could have been targeted like this. Many who resented her strict, often cruel ways were both thrilled and stunned by the news. The royal family immediately tightened security at the monastery, dispatching a large police force to investigate what had happened. The monastery became a focal point of public intrigue.“What? That's impossible! How could there be no trace?” Juliana exclaimed in disbelief. Standing before her was the chief forensic investigator.“Yes, Your Majesty, there's no sign of Princess Charlotte’s remains,” the investigator confirmed firmly.“Fine, I understand. Leave me, and keep me informed if anything changes,” Juliana replied, pressing her fingers to her

As the footsteps came closer, Charlotte held her breath, not daring to make a sound. Suddenly, a shadowy figure appeared—it was clear they were targeting her. She watched as the figure approached the bed, moving so quietly it was as if they made no sound at all. What could they possibly be planning? Surely, the headmistress would not go this far?The figure drew closer to the bed, bundled up the pillows and blankets, and then doused something over them. Charlotte could smell it—it was gasoline! Was the headmistress planning to kill her to silence her? She froze, unable to move. The shadow struck a match and dropped it onto the bed. In an instant, flames surged up from the blankets.In the fire’s glow, Charlotte could make out that it was not the headmistress but a man. After setting the fire, he quickly slipped away without making a single sound. Charlotte crept out while stifling a cough, afraid he might hear and return. The flames grew quickly, engulfing the bed and spreading t

Over the past year or so, Charlotte had gradually come to understand that the world was not just about picturesque landscapes and lavish feasts. In the shadows, beyond her sight, lay a world full of schemes and deception. Despite her ongoing attempts to plot against Lucy Quinn, she had not noticed this aspect at all until she arrived at the monastery. Here, she realized how dark human nature could truly be.The women at the monastery constantly criticized and belittled her, while the headmistress was corrupt, using her position for personal vendettas. She was also driven by greed for wealth and status. All Charlotte wanted was to escape this dreadful place and return to her castle. She wanted to go back to her plush, comfortable bed. There, she led a life surrounded by maids tending to her every need.Thinking of this, she remembered Lucy and envisioned her seated in her rightful place, basking in the affection of Arthur and Juliana. She could see Lucy's haughty expression starin

In a moment of heat, Charlotte blurted everything out. Joan was dumbfounded! Was this really Charlotte? She usually did not talk this much, did she? It was not just Joan who was shocked; the headmistress across from Charlotte was equally taken aback. Charlotte was usually so obedient. How had her tongue turned so venomous today? The headmistress was left speechless as every word Charlotte said was so reasonable that no one could argue against it, and it even warranted some compliments! Although Charlotte was confronting the headmistress, each of her statements felt like a plea for justice.Charlotte was not done yet and continued, “Since you know I’m a princess, you should give me some consideration. Yet, in reality, I’m the one giving you all the consideration. Is that reasonable?” Charlotte’s arguments were layered and logical, her thoughts clear. It left the headmistress in a muddle while Joan looked on with envy! The headmistress glanced at Charlotte, feeling quite displease
